§ 9 Withdrawal / Cancellation of Teacher Trainings

(1) You may withdraw from the Teacher Training up to the payment date of the first training installment or the full training price. The registration fee of €500 is NON-refundable in this case. These individual refund conditions are accepted upon registration for the Teacher Training.

(3) We reserve the right to reschedule the Teacher Training in the event of unforeseeable circumstances (e.g., illness of an instructor or similar), or if the minimum number of participants is not reached. In the case of a rescheduled date, participants may choose between attending the replacement date or receiving a refund of the fees already paid. Should the Teacher Training be cancelled by us without replacement, we will, of course, refund the registration fee in full.

§ 12 Choice of Law, Place of Performance, Jurisdiction

(1) German law applies. For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as it does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of the consumer’s habitual residence (principle of favorability).

(2) The place of performance for all services arising from our business relationships, as well as the place of jurisdiction, is our registered office, unless you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a public-law special fund. The same applies if you do not have a general place of jurisdiction in Germany or the EU, or if your residence or habitual place of residence is unknown at the time the lawsuit is filed. The right to file the lawsuit at another statutory place of jurisdiction remains unaffected.
